HAHA, Glam, go ahead and give this one a listen. Its worth it ;)

KItana has Mileena's roll, and Kitana's moveset wll mirror her MKII version. Fan lifts, jk into air throw, wave punch.

This is good news!!!
 
Hot damn...50 minutes? This better be damned entertaining. But I'm listening...now what am I supposed to do for 50 minutes?
 
Well I must admit that was unusually good. Good to hear from Tobias. Maybe we'll finally see Noob Saibot in future? I think they called him Noob Saibot in MKSM but in all the games where he's playable it's always Noob nowadays...

Anyway, those stages sound sick. Story related stages? You guys thinking what I'm thinking? MERGED REALMS? I certainly hope so.

Now all that remains is one thing...WHAT ABOUT SHAO KAHN!?

Metallica huh? interesting
 
Yeah, I was wonderin when were gonna see some more stages. With all the hoopla surrounding the characters, the arenas have been forgotten! I cant wait to see the Fortress of Solitude. :-D

True, but they never really strayed like MK did....

and this is what I am talking about:

Click this link, ( http://metallica.com/index.asp?item=601197 ) and click on the song called "All Nightmare Long". ;)
 
Aside from juggles, how is this really going back to 2D gameplay? Pretty much all that distinguishes a 3D fighter is the ability to sidestep and that is firmly in place. When you get right down to it, most people are gonna play in either the sidling or sidestepping dimensions even in a 3D fighter. I noticed that in SCIV a lot. People will choose whether they try to back up and block and advance or if they'll sidestep all your moves.

Now obviously the best players can do both, I like to think I can. But really, as long as sidestepping is in the game it's gonna play like a 3D fighter because that's all a 3D fighter is.

Hell yeah! That's probably the best news I've heard so far for this game. I was getting pretty annoyed that we still hadn't seen a gameplay video for her yet, so I'm pretty damn glad that they addressed that. It'll be awesome to lay down a jump kick/fan throw for the first time since the old days.

Definitely a worthwhile podcast.

I knew you'd be particularly very excited when I heard this ;)

Me too! MKII Kitana was one of the best MK characters ever!!! :D

Ehh, I guess that's matter of opinion lol. I like oldschool Metallica the newer stuff until this new news kind of can't compare ya know?


I'm just happy they're going back to their roots with a modern style ya know? Then again music vs. games two different worlds all together. I think it's easier for a vid game to stay alive rathe then a group.
 
Nothing really got me all exited. My peak was probably when Hector kinda revealed a second Joker fatality.
 
Oh yea I forgot to mention that. Basically means at least some characters have second fatalities. The funny thing is if he had just left it at "the one we know about" without freaking out over his mistake it COULD have been taken to mean "The fatality everybody already knows about" not necessarily "The Joker fatality everybody knows about" you know what I mean? But he screwed the pooch....again.

Aha. But Midway has done alot worse by releasing the achievements.
 
That's not a bad thing, about the acheivements. That was going to happen anyway...

As far as the fatality amount, everyone will have 2. Boon confirmed this, he says it in the MK universe interview with MK dan
